I loved watching this video. My LA150 quit moving after half hour mowing last summer, I did take it down and changed the fluid but never took the cover off to check anything so now when weather breaks again I am going to take it apart and repair it. The mower itself runs fine after I rebuilt the whole deck, new carb, fuel pump, voltage reg. tires, plugs, battery. My dad taught me well about mechanics, mostly auto motors and transmissions as he rebuilt them for over 50 years.

good video. thx. I removed the trans on my Scotts (JD) 2048 mower earlier this year and drained and replaced the oil. I also cleaned the top magnet. Machine had ~300hrs on it at the time, and was 22 yrs old. No slipping before or whining, but I figured I should change the oil. I used Castrol as well IIRC. Our yard is mostly flat, and I'm 200lbs. Hopefully it keeps running well for another 22 yrs.

I have a 2015 D160 with 170hrs. It struggles to get up hills, especially when hot. It's been getting worse over the last couple years. My back yard has a steep hill. After finding out how common this is and the cause, I removed the K46 and took the cover off. Everything looked ok - no big damage, probably just small wear. The magnets (four in mine) had a good amount of fine shavings. My filter is a screen, not paper. I cleaned everything up and resealed the case. The old oil looked very bad - thin and grey. I put fresh 5W40 synthetic in it, and it climbs hills so much better now. Hopefully I caught it before too much damage was done. I don't do any snow blowing/pushing or tow much of anything, just a lawn aerator once a year. I just wanted everyone to know that if you catch it early enough, you may not need to tear into the transaxle and rebuild. I think I'll get at least another couple years out of it.

I read/watched videos the trans fluid from the factory is garbage and causes a lot of wear and so the one thing I already did was drop the Trans and replace/upgrade the factory trans fluid with Full Synthetic 5W-50 oil and has been working great for 5 years. I'm hoping that upgrade will keep me from having to tear it apart and replace parts - we'll see. Since you have the Trans out, the one other thing I would do is replace the drive belt. You will need to drop the deck to replace plus you can also check the one or two other drive belt pulleys to see if the bearings are good/bad.

I have a spare Tuff Torq K46 from a Husqvarna, but have you ever tried to use one in a John Deere? I understand flipping the triangle pressure plate to reverse the movement direction, but I am not sure what you mean by saying "swap out your "axles" and "shift and brake levers". Not sure why the axle would need to swapped? (8:45) The connections on the trans look the same on most various K46 models. I would think using the different models from spares for common John Deere tractors etc could make a really good video if you ever get a chance to do one. Thanks for these videos they are really helpful.

If "you" can't fix it, you need to fix that first before demonstrating your inabilities publicly.

Just because the mower is green and says JOHN DEERE does not mean it was manufactured by JOHN DEERE company. Most are made by Craftsman or MTD. For the prices the riders cost they do not last long in workmanship. I have had several different brands of mowers and mostly all are not very reliable for very many hours.
